[HOT] Activation for Typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda)

[Pierre Béland]

We had news yesterday that DigitalGlobe will provide free his imagery for Phillipines. We have to greatly thank them and all the spatial providers of imagery contributing to this humanitarian activation.

The coordination team is making a tremendous effort. Thanks to Andrew Buck and Maning Sambale. Coordination with Robert Banick and Dale Kunce from Red Cross is also tremendous. What has been done since nov. 7 speaks by itself. Not to talk about all the medias who published articles about this Activation.

Developpers have also enhanced various tools for this operation. This greatly enforce our Activation Workflow and give us the capacity to work more closely with the UN Agencies and the various NGO's on the ground, including the Red Cross.

We need some help to support this wiki page. Those that want to help. please come in the HOT IRC to discuss about helping us.

Please update the wiki page for Typhoon Haiyan to reflect the various 
contributions. It is also important to document the News section to 
better inform those that follow this Activation.
